My New Buddy

Postby Bethers » Fri Dec 15, 2017 8:44 pm

I'm definitely not fancy with names for cars, rigs, etc... Winnie gets a hitchhiker on her back end now... Buddy, a 125 cc Genuine Buddy scooter.
Here he is in the driveway of his sellers:

Winnie accepts Buddy like the pro she is... And the lady relinquishing him is a sweetheart (she upgraded to a beaut).

I love it! I have always wanted a scooter, ever since I was in college. And it's red, too!!!

And you make it back full circle. Looks like you can figure out a ramp system or some way to get it on and off.....:-)

A ramp l would make it easier to load, go check out Big Tex Trailer World in Tucson, they will fix you up.

It has a ramp. That said, it's the getting it secured once up, and holding it while unsecuring (yes, I know, that's not a word, lol). I always needed help last time... One reason I gave that scooter up. But I'm determined to conquer it this time, one way or another. I don't have the spare tire in the way this time which makes a big difference.

And, yes, Tina, full circle :D

Drive careful, remember people can look right at you and not see you. Enjoy it - they look like a lot of fun.

Love your new buddy, wish I thought I could handle loading/unloading one.

Good for you, Beth, and I love the ladybug helmet! Hope it all works out for you. I know it's been a trial and error for you to find the right combo. Looks like fun.

Have fun with your new Buddy! Being red should help people see you better. Will Peaches fit in the basket in back? :lol:

Peaches wouldn't even consider riding in my last scooter. I don't traumatize her by trying again.

Lucky you! I love it! Have lots of fun, but, may I suggest wearing a bright jacket or vest? See you soon out at Q. Lyn
